No appetite

My husband has both advanced bowel cancer and aggressive prostate cancer. We have been told after chemo that run out of options. Tumour grew around stent in bowel resulting in having stoma at end of April.  On morphine.  Appetite very poor and husband looks skeletal. At a loss as to how I can help him.
